Linalool Price Trend for the First Half of 2025

Asia

In Asia, the first half of 2025 witnessed a steadily rising trend with moderately increasing linalool prices, primarily influenced by India’s coriander crop. Despite a reduction in sown acreage, favorable climatic conditions in key producing states such as Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Madhya Pradesh are expected to improve yields.

This higher output is likely to offset acreage concerns and maintain a stable supply of coriander essential oil, a major linalool source. Although demand across food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic sectors remains strong, the expected increase in raw material availability is likely to support regional price stability.

Europe

In Europe, linalool prices also rose due to lower lavender oil production, particularly in Bulgaria one of the largest producers. High production costs and low returns led to reduced cultivation and the closure of several distilleries. This decline, alongside continued demand from the perfumery, aromatherapy, and cosmetics sectors, supported upward price pressure. The shortage of ISO-spec lavender oil further strained supply. While stable output in Moldova and abundant clary sage oil offered some relief, they were insufficient to offset Bulgaria’s shortfall, resulting in overall price increases.

North America

In North America, linalool prices followed the global upward trend, largely driven by rising import costs from Europe. The region relies heavily on imported lavender and coriander oils, and reduced Bulgarian exports pushed prices higher. Continued demand from wellness, fragrance, and cosmetics industries reinforced the pressure. As global supply remains tight and demand strong, North American prices mirrored global trends.

Analyst Insight

According to Procurement Resource, Linalool prices are expected to continue increasing into the second half of 2025 due to ongoing European supply constraints and sustained global demand, particularly from aromatherapy and cosmetic sectors.
 

Linalool Price Trend for the Year 2024

Asia

In Asia, consumers of cosmetics, skincare, and pharmaceuticals observed a steady increase in linalool prices throughout 2024. Linalool maintained strong market activity as more personal care brands adopted natural or plant-based ingredients in response to growing consumer preference.

While demand from the pharmaceutical and food sectors remained stable, raw material costs fluctuated especially for essential oils such as lavender and coriander, the primary sources of linalool. Despite these cost shifts, prices trended upward overall. Occasional supply challenges emerged, but manufacturers and end-users sustained consistent procurement, supporting steady price growth in the region.

Europe

In Europe, similar trends were noted. Regulatory measures encouraging the use of natural and sustainable ingredients in personal and household care products contributed to a gradual rise in linalool prices. Consistent demand from fragrance and aromatherapy sectors was driven by growing consumer interest, while wellness-oriented pharmaceutical products also saw increased uptake. Although periodic logistical disruptions and raw material cost variations were reported, they did not significantly hinder overall market progress. As a result, prices increased steadily due to strong industrial demand and continued reliance on plant-based sources.

North America

In North America, linalool prices followed a comparable pattern. Its popularity saw growth across home care, personal hygiene, and wellness products, with botanical extracts gaining traction in consumer goods such as cleaning agents, soaps, and lotions. As consumers increasingly prioritized well-being, demand for aromatherapy and stress-relief products rose. Regulatory support for bio-based ingredients further strengthened the market, contributing to consistent upward pricing trends.

Analyst Insight

According to Procurement Resource, the linalool price trend is likely to remain similarly fluctuating going forward as well since the current supply and demand dynamic does not suggest much change.
 

Linalool Price Trend for the Second Half of 2023

Asia

The difficulty in extraction of linalool from natural sources makes it a labor-intensive field, and with the rise in inflationary pressure, the cost of production rose beyond the expectations of the manufacturers, increasing the prices of linalool.

Due to these constraints, the domestic production of linalool and its feedstock materials thus remained only moderate throughout the H2 of 2023. This subdued production eventually caused the inventories to dry up and with the rise in demand from the fragrance and flavor industries, the prices of linalool climbed upwards by the end of the year 2023.

Europe

The limited procurement rates from downstream industries, such as fragrance industries, negatively affected the price trend of linalool. The market also remained subdued due to the rise in the availability of cheaper imports and alternatives, as a result of which the number of new orders declined gradually in the third quarter of 2023. However, the winds turned in the fourth quarter as the flavor sector presented significant improvement in its market activities, which was well reflected in the rise in the prices of linalool.

North America

The oscillations in the market sentiments of the downstream industries and the slow and gradual rise in the prices of crude oil pushed the linalool prices into a fluctuating spiral during the third quarter of 2023. In the latter half of this quarter, the downplay of several macroeconomic factors, such as interest rates and inflation hikes, exerted a negative influence on consumer confidence. However, in the fourth quarter, the market towered in a positive direction, and with the rise in the procurement of downstream industries, the price trend of linalool moved in the northward direction.

Analyst Insight

According to Procurement Resource, the price trend of Linalool is expected to thrive on account of the rising interest of the consumers of the fragrance industry.
 

Linalool Price Trend for the First Half of 2023

Asia

Linalool is a type of terpene popularly used in the fragrance industry. The prices of linalool declined in the first quarter of 2023 as the supply-demand balance witnessed some disruptions. Further,  the significant incline in the level of inventories, low interest of buyers, and weak support from the downstream industries affected the overall sentiment. The market sentiments improved somewhat in the second quarter as the fragrance and flavor industries saw an improvement in their sales figures, which, along with favorable winds from the buyers' sector, caused the prices of linalool to incline.

Europe

The first and second quarters followed the same trajectory as supply surpassed the level of demand. The low rates of consumption from the pharmaceutical sector majorly contributed to the falling trend of linalool prices. Further, the declining economic conditions of the European countries also proved to be a challenge for the growth of the linalool prices.

North America

The first quarter saw a consistent decline in linalool prices in North America as inventories exceeded demand. Sectors such as oil-based cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and ointments were particularly impacted during this period, leading to poor performance in the linalool market. However, the second quarter brought a shift in the price trend as consumer consumption rates increased, positively affecting demand from downstream industries. Towards the end of this quarter, concerns arose due to falling crude oil prices and rising inventory levels for manufacturers.

Analyst Insight

According to Procurement Resource, the price trend of Linalool is expected to decline in the upcoming months as the demand from the end-user sector seems to be consistently declining.
